Welcome to a site dedicated to the work of the Cuban Jewish Relief Project of B'nai B'rith's Center for Public Policy.
It is our purpose to assist in the revitalization of Judaism in Cuba through personal contacts and through spiritual and material help.
On these pages you will find photos and descriptions of current and past activities, including ways in which you may become actively involved.

Since 1995 we have helped the Jewish Cuban Community with humanitarian supplies and Judaica that have been needed to help maintain the community. We have also been able to send mammography machines to the hospital and medical texts to the University via the Jewish community.

We invite you to join us to visit and understand the religious and other needs of the community. Please feel free to contact us through the B'nai B'rith office: e-mail bbrelief@earthlink.net or call (877) 222-9590 (toll-free number).
